Others that are pretty good and fairly available in US might include Pradeaux, Ch. Ste Anne, Pibarnon, and Bastide Blanche.
I don't know any all-Mouvedre Rhones, but Beaucastel tends to have more Mouvedre than most.
Hopefully someone else can give better advice.

The last one was 2004 which I liked a lot - not as excessively fruity as some of Randall's wines can be, and 100% Mourvèdre, AFAIK. It offers an interesting comparison, anyhow.
